Good news for those toppers...

[nitishgarg]

its indeed a great news for toppers cause it has been decided in the first board meeting of DTU that cash prize of 10000 rs. will be awarded to topper of each branch in the end sem exam along with a certificate of merit.
Also Rs. 5000 for the second topper wit a certi of merit....

topper of every semester(according to % in one sem)
or dr1(aggregate wise) ?

[nitishgarg]

its the topper of each semsester..more info on dce.edu..

The website states that its for students of B.Tech/M.Tech/M.B.A

So clearly not for those admitted under the D.C.E banner

But doesn't it promote ghissuism???

[akhil89]

Should it not?

But doesn't it promote ghissuism???

so be it...isn't that what the college is supposed to encourage...it's another thing that very few of us choose to walk on the path of ghissuism...and every branch has it's share of ghissus anyways,previously they used to go unrewarded,now they will be rewarded,that is the only change and if u perceive it this way i am sure it will be a welcome change...

"These awards will be conferred strictly on the basis of academic merit of a candidate including the fact that he/ she has passed all the subjects of a semester in one attempt and has not scored less then 75% in the academic semester."..
